This paper explores the inclusive educational landscapes of urban and rural areas in Rajasthan, India, analyzing the distinct challenges and opportunities each setting presents. With a focus on the historical context, policy framework, and specific initiatives aimed at improving educational access and quality, the study highlights the disparities between urban and rural education. Urban areas, characterized by better infrastructure and resources, face issues of equity and inclusivity, particularly for marginalized communities. In contrast, rural regions struggle with inadequate infrastructure, teacher shortages, and socio-cultural barriers that impede educational access and retention, especially for girls. The paper also examines the role of government and non-governmental organizations in promoting inclusive education, emphasizing the need for targeted strategies to address the unique needs of each setting. Recommendations include enhancing infrastructure, improving teacher recruitment and training, promoting gender equity, leveraging technology, and engaging communities to create a more inclusive educational landscape.
